"Dissection is an instrument for studying the internal structure of
something. Inspired by this technique we will apply it to digital manufacturing
specifically to laser cutting, This in combination with illumination will
create a light object product. The outcome will become a subtle night stand
with translucent and diffused light.

The connection between light and laser engraving works both ways: the design
will affect the light making it softer because the laser will create texture on
the transparent material and the light will affect the design by altering the
way we perceive the image. With the help of Rhino3D + Grasshopper we will
digitally dissect complex geometries, boolean massing, visualize and transform
into digital fabrication protocols."
